I'm looking for a good all round bullet for both my 280 Rem. (Remington 700 Classic) and my above mentioned 308 Win. for deer, hogs and black bear hunting. How will the Fusion ammo work for what I'm going to use it for? I don't want to go over kill for deer but I want to use the same bullet for hogs and black bear. So I don't have to sight in with different ammo every time I hunt one or the other mentioned game. Or is there something better I can use to hunt all three of the above mentioned game with switching and having to sight in something different?

Thanks, NYH!

I have used them in my Marlin Lever Gun, 357 mag, and it was impressive on a deer. Shot a doe and 65 or so yards and it looked like a train hit her she went down so fast. Who needs a blood trail when you nail them to the ground.
